Ever had a brilliant idea for a product but no clue how to make it real?
Whether you are a visionary with a dream, or just love a story of resilience and midlife woman badassery, this episode is for you.
Jill is a longtime Pilates instructor with a thriving studio and Instagram following. But when she couldn’t find a piece of equipment that did what her clients actually needed, she decided to invent her own. That’s how Fit Springs was born: a spring-resistance workout system that’s now being used by everyone from professional athletes to clients in their 70s.
Jill shares the real story behind building her product—from sketching prototypes with a Burning Man engineer to navigating business setbacks, a violent personal attack, and the long, messy middle of turning a brilliant idea into a brand.
We talk about:
✔️ How she went from “I have an idea” to “I built a brand”
✔️ The technical and physical challenges of product development
✔️ The assault that could have set her back, but didn’t—and how she rehabbed herself using the very product she created
✔️ How she built a brand without outside funding—and the challenges this presented
✔️ Her best advice for anyone sitting on a brilliant idea
